¶Lyrics / Text

'Tis May upon the mountain, 'Tis May upon the lea; And in the flood, and in the wood, And with the bird and bee, The trees are weaving rainbows, With sunbeams, buds and dew If of May I sing, 'tis but to bring, My earliest song to you. The cuckoo now is telling Her name to ev'ry grove: Each flower holds up a dewy cup, Lipful of life and love. The fragrant breath of morning, Breathes hopes and fancies new; If of them I sing, 'tis but to bring, My earliest song to you.
